the parsing code. A colon is now required before every block in a definition. This fixes a problem with the old syntax, in which the last block in the following was ambiguous between a regular paragraph in the definition and a code block following the definition list: term : definition is this code or more definition? git-svn-id: https://pandoc.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@589 788f1e2b-df1e-0410-8736-df70ead52e1b
2007-04-10Extensive changes stemming from a rethinking of the Pandoc datafiddlosopher1-3/+7
structure. Key and Note blocks have been removed. Link and image URLs are now stored directly in Link and Image inlines, and note blocks are stored in Note inlines. This requires changes in both parsers and writers. Markdown and RST parsers need to extract data from key and note blocks and insert them into the relevant inline elements. Other parsers can be simplified, since there is no longer any need to construct separate key and note blocks. Markdown, RST, and HTML writers need to construct lists of notes; Markdown and RST writers need to construct lists of link references (when the --reference-links option is specified); and the RST writer needs to construct a list of image substitution references. All writers have been rewritten to use the State monad when state is required. This rewrite yields a small speed boost and considerably cleaner code. * Text/Pandoc/Definition.hs: + blocks: removed Key and Note + inlines: removed NoteRef, added Note + modified Target: there is no longer a 'Ref' target; all targets are explicit URL, title pairs * Text/Pandoc/Shared.hs: + Added 'Reference', 'isNoteBlock', 'isKeyBlock', 'isLineClump', used in some of the readers. + Removed 'generateReference', 'keyTable', 'replaceReferenceLinks', 'replaceRefLinksBlockList', along with some auxiliary functions used only by them. These are no longer needed, since reference links are resolved in the Markdown and RST readers. + Moved 'inTags', 'selfClosingTag', 'inTagsSimple', and 'inTagsIndented' to the Docbook writer, since that is now the only module that uses them. + Changed name of 'escapeSGMLString' to 'escapeStringForXML' + Added KeyTable and NoteTable types + Removed fields from ParserState; 'stateKeyBlocks', 'stateKeysUsed', 'stateNoteBlocks', 'stateNoteIdentifiers', 'stateInlineLinks'. Added 'stateKeys' and 'stateNotes'. + Added clause for Note to 'prettyBlock'. + Added 'writerNotes', 'writerReferenceLinks' fields to WriterOptions. * Text/Pandoc/Entities.hs: Renamed 'escapeSGMLChar' and 'escapeSGMLString' to 'escapeCharForXML' and 'escapeStringForXML' * Text/ParserCombinators/Pandoc.hs: Added lineClump parser: parses a raw line block up to and including following blank lines. * Main.hs: Replaced --inline-links with --reference-links. * README: + Documented --reference-links and removed description of --inline-links. + Added note that footnotes may occur anywhere in the document, but must be at the outer level, not embedded in block elements. * man/man1/pandoc.1, man/man1/html2markdown.1: Removed --inline-links option, added --reference-links option * Markdown and RST readers: + Rewrote to fit new Pandoc definition. Since there are no longer Note or Key blocks, all note and key blocks are parsed on a first pass through the document. Once tables of notes and keys have been constructed, the remaining parts of the document are reassembled and parsed. + Refactored link parsers. * LaTeX and HTML readers: Rewrote to fit new Pandoc definition. Since there are no longer Note or Key blocks, notes and references can be parsed in a single pass through the document. * RST, Markdown, and HTML writers: Rewrote using state monad new Pandoc and definition. State is used to hold lists of references footnotes to and be printed at the end of the document. * RTF and LaTeX writers: Rewrote using new Pandoc definition. (Because of the different treatment of footnotes, the "notes" parameter is no longer needed in the block and inline conversion functions.) * Docbook writer: + Moved the functions 'attributeList', 'inTags', 'selfClosingTag', 'inTagsSimple', 'inTagsIndented' from Text/Pandoc/Shared, since they are now used only by the Docbook writer. + Rewrote using new Pandoc definition. (Because of the different treatment of footnotes, the "notes" parameter is no longer needed in the block and inline conversion functions.) * Updated test suite * Throughout: old haskell98 module names replaced by hierarchical module names, e.g. List by Data.List. * debian/control: Include libghc6-xhtml-dev instead of libghc6-html-dev in "Build-Depends." * cabalize: + Remove haskell98 from BASE_DEPENDS (since now the new hierarchical module names are being used throughout) + Added mtl to BASE_DEPENDS (needed for state monad) + Removed html from GHC66_DEPENDS (not needed since xhtml is now used) git-svn-id: https://pandoc.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@580 788f1e2b-df1e-0410-8736-df70ead52e1b
2007-03-11New syntax documentation for definition lists. Now wefiddlosopher1-7/+9
require a ':' at the beginning of the definition; otherwise, too many false positives for definition lists. git-svn-id: https://pandoc.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@570 788f1e2b-df1e-0410-8736-df70ead52e1b

2007-03-09Change in ordered lists in Markdown reader:fiddlosopher1-12/+11
+ Lists may begin with lowercase letters only, and only 'a' through 'n'. Otherwise first initials and page references (e.g., p. 400) are too easily parsed as lists. + Numbers beginning list items must end with '.' (not ')', which is now allowed only after letters). NOTE: This change may cause documents to be parsed differently. Users should take care in upgrading. git-svn-id: https://pandoc.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@561 788f1e2b-df1e-0410-8736-df70ead52e1b
2007-03-03Added --inline-links option to force links in HTML to be parsedfiddlosopher1-0/+3
as inline links, rather than reference links. (Addresses Issue #4.) git-svn-id: https://pandoc.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@554 788f1e2b-df1e-0410-8736-df70ead52e1b
2007-01-15Added support for tables in markdown reader and in LaTeX,fiddlosopher1-0/+65
DocBook, and HTML writers. The syntax is documented in README. Tests have been added to the test suite. git-svn-id: https://pandoc.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@493 788f1e2b-df1e-0410-8736-df70ead52e1b
2007-01-08+ Changed 'escapedChar' in Markdown reader so that only thefiddlosopher1-0/+22
characters Markdown escapes are escaped in strict mode. When not in strict mode, Pandoc allows all non-alphanumeric characters to be escaped. + Added documentation of backslash escapes to README. git-svn-id: https://pandoc.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@461 788f1e2b-df1e-0410-8736-df70ead52e1b

2007-01-08Changes to Pandoc's options to facilitate wrapper scripts:fiddlosopher1-17/+31
+ removed -d/--debug option + added --dump-args option, which prints the name of the output file (or '-' for STDOUT) and all the command-line arguments (excluding Pandoc options and their arguments), one per line, then exits. Note that special wrapper options will be treated as arguments if they follow '--' at the end of the command line. Thus, pandoc --dump-args -o foo.html foo.txt -- -e latin1 will print the following to STDOUT: foo.html foo.txt -e latin1 + added --ignore-args option, which causes Pandoc to ignore all (non-option) arguments, including any special options that occur after '--' at the end of the command line. + '-' now means STDIN as the name of an input file, STDOUT as the name of an output file. So, pandoc -o - - will take input from STDIN and print output to STDOUT. Note that if multiple '-o' options are specified on the same line, the last one takes precedence. So, in a script, pandoc "$@" -o - will guarantee output to STDOUT, even if the '-o' option was used. + documented these changes in man pages, README, and changelog. git-svn-id: https://pandoc.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@454 788f1e2b-df1e-0410-8736-df70ead52e1b
2007-01-06Merged changes from 'quotes' branch since r431. Smart typographyfiddlosopher1-2/+4
is now handled in the Markdown and LaTeX readers, rather than in the writers. The HTML writer has been rewritten to use the prettyprinting library. git-svn-id: https://pandoc.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@436 788f1e2b-df1e-0410-8736-df70ead52e1b

2007-01-02Added 'hsmarkdown' wrapper, designed to be used as a drop-infiddlosopher1-11/+21
replacement for Markdown.pl. It calls pandoc with the options '--from markdown --to html --strict' and disallows other options. (Any command-line options will be interpreted as arguments.) git-svn-id: https://pandoc.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@399 788f1e2b-df1e-0410-8736-df70ead52e1b

2006-12-30Merged 'strict' branch from r324. This adds a '--strict'fiddlosopher1-22/+13

2006-12-29Reversed changes from r246:fiddlosopher1-21/+0
+ Removed invisible anchors in front of header tags in HTML output. Reason: no way to prevent duplicate ID attributes (which is invalid HTML), since there might be duplicate header titles. See http://six.pairlist.net/pipermail/markdown-discuss/2005-January/000975.html. git-svn-id: https://pandoc.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@306 788f1e2b-df1e-0410-8736-df70ead52e1b
2006-12-28Added two more demo cases to website. Put a footnote infiddlosopher1-3/+5

2006-12-28+ Removed the convenience symlinks (which don't work on Windows underfiddlosopher1-75/+64
Cygwin, due to Windows' lack of true symbolic links). + Modified the wrappers to use 'pandoc' instead of the symlinks. + Modified the Makefile to remove all references to the symlinks. + Removed code from Main.hs that made pandoc's behavior depend on the name of the calling program. + Added code to Main.hs that sets default reader and writer based on extensions of input and output filenames (if provided). (Thanks to roktas for the idea.) + Modified README and man pages accordingly. + Removed WINDOWS-README target from Makefile. It is no longer needed now that we don't have the symlinks. git-svn-id: https://pandoc.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@295 788f1e2b-df1e-0410-8736-df70ead52e1b
2006-12-22Merged changes from branches/wrappers since r177.fiddlosopher1-97/+154
Summary of main changes: + Added -o/--output and -d/--debug options to pandoc. + Modified pandoc to behave differently depending on the name of the program. For example, if the program name is 'html2latex', the default reader will be html and the default writer latex. + Removed most of the old wrappers, replacing them with symlinks to pandoc. + Rewrote markdown2pdf and created a new wrapper web2markdown, with the functionality of the old html2markdown script. These new scripts exploit pandoc's -d option to avoid having to do complex command-line parsing. + Revised man pages and documentation appropriately. git-svn-id: https://pandoc.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@279 788f1e2b-df1e-0410-8736-df70ead52e1b

2006-12-20Removed LICENSE, replacing it with COPYING (text of GPL)fiddlosopher1-1/+1
and COPYRIGHT (including copyright information and licenses for other packages used). Modified Pandoc.cabal.in and README accordingly. git-svn-id: https://pandoc.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@249 788f1e2b-df1e-0410-8736-df70ead52e1b
2006-12-20Modified the HTML writer to add invisible anchors to each sectionfiddlosopher1-0/+20
heading. The anchors are derived form the text of the section heading as described in README. This makes it easy to insert links that jump from one part of a document to another: for example, '[back to the Introduction](#Introduction)'. git-svn-id: https://pandoc.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@246 788f1e2b-df1e-0410-8736-df70ead52e1b

2006-12-19Changed footnote syntax to conform to the de facto standardfiddlosopher1-13/+15
for markdown footnotes. References are now like this[^1] rather than like this^(1). There are corresponding changes in the footnotes themselves. See the updated README for more details. git-svn-id: https://pandoc.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@230 788f1e2b-df1e-0410-8736-df70ead52e1b

2006-12-16Modified markdown reader to allow ordered list items to beginfiddlosopher1-0/+29
with (single) letters, as well as numbers. The list item marker may now be terminated either by '.' or by ')'. These extensions to standard markdown are documented in README. git-svn-id: https://pandoc.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@211 788f1e2b-df1e-0410-8736-df70ead52e1b

2006-10-29* Extracted installation instructions from README into a separate file,fiddlosopher1-79/+22
